Why Is the Compiler Denied Permission To The .exe File?

[F6|Zman]

Here is the error I keep getting:

Linking executable: ..\..\bin\sauerbraten.exe
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.7.0/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot open output file ..\..\bin\sauerbraten.exe: Permission denied
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Process terminated with status 1 (0 minutes, 0 seconds)
1 errors, 0 warnings

How do I change my permission settings? or...?

Most common cause is the exe is currently running.
If this, close the exe.

Possible anti-virus software issue.

Possible file security issue.

Please learn to post in the correct sub-forum; you might get more replies!
